I have worked in criminal defense since the beginning of my legal career and I could never imagine myself working in any other area of the law. I started as an assistant and have worked my way through law school, marrying what I learned at the best trial advocacy school in the country with invalueable on the job training to bring me to where I am today. I pride myself on my ability to relate to my clients and my overwhelming desire to work hard to defend those who have put their faith and trust in me. You will find more experienced legal minds, but you will not find a more zealous advocate.

Excellent Representation
I was charged with a 3rd degree felony (I am so naïve on legal matters, I didn't even know the difference between felony and misdemeanor). Prior to this incident, I never had any interaction with the police. But as a professional in the community, having a large family and a deep reputation in the ...
